Co-owners of Danish offshore wind farm
PensionDanmark is lead investor in the consortium and will acquire a 30 per cent interest, while PKA will acquire a 20 per cent interest.
DONG Energy commits to constructing the Anholt offshore wind farm at a fixed price and by a fixed date. On 1 April 2014, PensionDanmark and PKA will take over responsibility for operation and earnings in proportion to their respective interests. Until that date, production will primarily accrue to DONG Energy.
DONG Energy has signed a 15-year contract with PensionDanmark and PKA on operation and planned maintenance of the farm.
The transaction is subject to approval by the competition authorities and to the Danish Energy Agency approving PensionDanmark and PKA as parties to the licensing agreement concerning the construction and operation of the Anholt offshore wind farm that was concluded between DONG Energy and the Danish Energy Agency in 2010. The transaction is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2011.
